SB 434 - This act pertains to the Administrative Hearing Commission. The act removes language that subjects the commission's compensation and expenses to general revenue appropriations - the draft simply states that those items will be paid from appropriations.
The act transfers authority to hear appeals to the administrative hearing commission; however the authority to render final decisions remains with the commissions listed in the act. The act lays out procedural details as well as notification requirements for any appeal that may be heard before the Administrative Hearing Commission.
The act directs appropriations to be made from the respective funds to cover the Administrative Hearing Commission's costs to cover the appeals.
